The Rochester Recreation Center is a sprawling facility that offers a wide range of activities for the community. It features two ice rinks, two pools (including a 50-meter lap pool), a gym, and amenities for sports like hockey, swimming, pickleball, ice skating, basketball, and even curling. The center is home to the local hockey team, swim club, and figure skating program.
